I’ve noticed a few thread hijack attempts on illegal aliens. I’d be interested in hearing from people who rent to and have first hand knowledge of these people (me). It’s a plus if you speak Spanish and communicate with them on a monthly basis (me). So another words, if you just read the paper and watch the news, with no real experience first hand, don’t respond to this thread.
It should go without saying that the citizens of any country make it a good or bad place to live.Ever wonder just what happened to make this country so great?? It was the natural process of selection that took place many years ago when MOST of our ancestors choose to take a big risk and come to this country seeking a better life(obviously there was one minority group that didn’t choose to come here, and before you badger the illegals, look at those statistics). The less ambitious of the group were left behind. Through basic genetics this country has developed the way it has by the same attitude passed down generation after generation.
Most of the immigrants today whether legal or illegal, have the same general attitude when they arrive to the land of the free In fact, i believe that the illegal ones are even more motivated to become something great. I had a tenant not long ago tell me, the biggest difference between here and Mexico, when he sees a nice car here, rather than wonder what political scam the owner is involved in, or which drug car teller he works for, he instead tells himself someday that is going to be me. It is this attitude that makes our country a great place to live.
I sure wish there was a way to deport the deadbeats of our society instead of illegals, imagine the effect of that on our economy.
